The class of k Nearest Neighbor (kNN) queries is frequently used in geospatial applications. Many studies focus on processing kNN in Euclidean and road network spaces. Meanwhile, ...
The use of centralized, real-time position tracking is proliferating in the areas of logistics and public transportation. Real-time positions can be used to provide up-to-date inf...
The R*-tree, as a state-of-the-art spatial index, has already found its way into commercial systems like Oracle. In this paper, we aim at improving query performance of the R*tree...
We present a multi-dimensional indexing approach for fast sequence similarity search in DNA and protein databases. In particular, we propose effective transformations of subsequen...
An important type of spatial queries for sensor networks are K Nearest Neighbor (KNN) queries. Currently, research proposals for KNN query processing is based on index structures,...
